yarn yarn and more yarn

no i didn't buy more. it's still all about the box i just posted pics of yesterday.

i tried posting more but typepad (and other internet sites) were screwy.

susan - the yarn on cones is zelda: "CLASSIC ELITE
ZELDA
A really nice blend of wool and linen, Zelda will do practically anything you ask with a versatile gauge range.
Content 70% Wool/30% Linen
Weight/Yardage: 687yds/cone
Gauge: 4-4.5 sts = 1" #7-#8 needles
Knitting Weight: Worsted"

aren't those colors yummy enough to eat??? ;) i finally broke out of my blue and purple (and therefore everything matching my couch) rut!

only one issue with the yarn i got.... the color of the cascade lana d'oro. now i know that pictures can be funny in color, and viewing colors online may be risky, but this was very surprising. the top color is from the webs site, and the bottom one is my picture (which is close to real life.)

maybe just a higher power steering me away from blues and greens?? i dunno. i can't return it, and i'm feeling particularly broke (especially since i found a car i want!) so - alas. i will not order more. for now. and it still is really pretty!

looks totally wrong. wow! the color numbers match and everything? i'm in the midst of placing my order and was just wondering about my color selection. hope i won't be disappointed.

best,
